Was in the yard today, spotted these cocoon thingys on a Buddleia

looks like some sort of bagworm to me. It's the caterpillar of a small moth.

This here. Usually spells death for most conifers if not treated. Cut them off into a bucket of water to drown them. Then into the trash.

but they're cute and not invasive

Why doesn't /an/ have a "what is that thing" general? It feels like threads of this sort are an almost daily occurrence.

>>2348442
because even if we did, all these normalfags here wouldn't use it

Found cocoons like this all over when I was a kid in Southern Ohio, OP. Thanks for the nostalgia blast.

Might as well make a thread for people with pets that died.

Larva of moth of Psychidae family.

I had a nightmare about these fuckers last night OP I'm glad you're happy. Giant ones on a tree, suddenly they have fanged mouths and proceed to eat me alive, then tiny versions of myself are birthed from the ends of them. So surreal. I hate bagworms so much. When I was a kid I found some and put their cocoons in my pockets, stuck my hands in the next day and had terrible itching rashes all over my fingers.
